An online medium has quoted a statement by one Mr Kassim Afegbua as saying that Babangida had "called on Nigerians to cooperate with President Muhammadu Buhari to complete his tenure and collectively work towards preparing the way for new generation leadership to assume the mantle of leadership of the country".

Orire said his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), is on the path of economic recovery and getting Nigeria out of the woods.

Multiple sources confirmed the arrest order on Sunday.

According to him, "Kindly note that former military head of state and former president, Dr. Olusegun Obasanjo, only a few days ago, apparently singing from the same hymnbook, issued a statement with which he called on Nigerians to form or join a Coalition for Nigeria Movement (CNM)".

"Let's me categorically state that as a former President and Statesman, I have unfettered access and channel of communication with the highest authorities in the country without necessary going public with a sensational statement". I have never issued a statement on behalf of General Babangida and it gets a rebuttal. "So, to that extent, they went and did a statement to deny that".

The scheme will fund Rs 5 lakh to close to 50 crore people who require hospital care. "This government has a principle". Referring to the Triple Talaq legislation, Shah said Muslim women were battling for their rights in courts for years.

"So, the statement stands and I have since communicated to all the media houses that they should respect that statement as coming from IBB".

There was a controversy when another statement was released from IBB's camp. We sat down, we discussed and articulated them. The kernel of that statement should inform public discourse and not necessarily people personalising it as if it were to be against the sitting president. It was learned that Afegbua has been given 24 hours to turn himself up for "issuing a fake statement".

"Nigerians can begin to interrogate the issues he raised in that statement".

He said the written letter and memo writing was not an accident but aimed at discouraging the president from running for a constitutionally guaranteed second term, which they were afraid would put Nigeria on an irreversible path of probity, prudence and progress.
